The one area I'm slightly concerned about is how to get a boot script written for Espeak that Gentoo can use. Of course, it migght not need this, but... Any help here? I like my speech as soon as I can get it. Thanks, Zack. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lorenzo Taylor" To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux."
